How thick are some people?

[notedbiscuits]

About a quarter of a mile from my home there is a McDs which is closed a few days ago for a refurbishment til around 8th August (I think). It’s off a major roundabout. Drive on the roundabout a few times a week.

Despite the whole area fenced off, most of the external walls have gone, signs with reopening date with another McDs postcode (there’s one nearer), car park taken up by portacabins and old ventilation bits etc - people are still trying to enter McDs! This is even from the side of the roundabout where you can see the building is just a shell.

How people are going to cope with McDs closed for 7.5 weeks with the schools breaking up on the second week of July.

It is the McDonalds equivalent of the Walking Dead!

Odd treat? It's full of rubbish anyone who eats healthy or clean wouldn't put that crap into there bodies.
Ooohhh getting a little power trip calling out a spelling mistake, yes I'm dyslexic but you still understood what I said

😂

In answer to your title: very.
in answer to bad driving: I’m registered sight impaired and cannot drive due to this and I’m pretty sure I see better than some of the muppets on the road

Meir park by any chance?

I miss potters, childhood memories of the sentinel being sold in Barmouth heaven forbid my grandparents had ro miss reading the hatched, matched and dispatched!

McDs is the gift that keeps giving, still remember the anger and hate during Covid.

@Loub55 I think you and I live in the same town 🤣

It's not surprising at all. I've worked in various jobs that involve dealing with the public all of my adult life and have always found the amount of people who seem to lack very basic comprehension and reasoning skills (not to mention manners!) astounding.

I used to be a police officer, if there had been an RTC I'd often have to close off the road at the preceding roundabout. I'd park my police car across the junction with the lights on and put cones out as well as stand there waving cars to keep going.
The amount of people that would stop, wind the window down and ask 'is the road closed?'
God I had to bite my tongue.

Big, massive push sign on the door, many still pulled

This is a Gary Larsen cartoon. And I got it wrong about 50% of the time I walked into the Bodleian, whose doors are similarly labelled, when I was an Oxford student. Not stupid, got a Double First, but can't tell left from right.

Tal y Bont caravan park? Spend half the week trying to find the one shop that sold Wrights Pies 😂

Sunny sands

Depends where you are in England. I live in Leicestershire and we break ip
on the 9th July.

That's not fucking food - just death and chemicals.

Did I tell you I have a scratch I can't itch?

I think I live in the same town. I don't think it could be much clearer that it is closed.

Dumbest thing I heard from a brexit voter was that we should be able to vote in EU elections because what they do affectsus so much.

Colton!

Hilarious!

DD works in a McDonald's, also off a roundabout. Same thing happens there - when very obviously shut for refurb or on Christmas Day or if there's been a power cut etc. People actually get out of their cars to move the cones so they can drive in 🤦

I work in a retail shop. We closed our customer services and now everything is done at the tills 10ft from the previous Cs counter...
We have signs on the old CS counter telling the customers to take refunds to the tills and the amount of customers day in day out that just stand at this empty counter, which has now been empty for at least 2 years... They stand reading the sign that says "take all refunds to the tills" and argue with us and even when we point out there is no tills at this counter it's like we are stopping them from having a refund.

We put stock in front of the counter at one point and customers would try and move it out of the way to get to the counter 😂

My store manager always said to me.. No one reads ANYTHING!! Including staff. We can put signs up informing staff of things and guaranteed numerous people will complain they haven't seen what we have put up.

I've got a couple.

I'm in Wolverhampton. In the summer there are regular coach trips to various places including Alton Towers.

It's actually cheaper to go on the coach than pay the normal entry fee. Something like £20 on the bus or £30 for just the ticket.

A neighbour's adult daughter wanted to take her children to Alton Towers. But she would not go on the coach because then she couldn't use her railcard.

I could not explain to her that she was wasting money.

Is it Stairfoot? And if so do I win a prize?
